Description of problem: I used Adobe Flash Player in Firefox SELinux is preventing /usr/lib64/xulrunner/plugin-container from 'unlink' accesses on the file settings.sol. ***** Plugin mozplugger (99.1 confidence) suggests ************************* If you want to use the plugin package Then you must turn off SELinux controls on the Firefox plugins. Do # setsebool unconfined_mozilla_plugin_transition 0 ***** Plugin catchall (1.81 confidence) suggests *************************** If you believe that plugin-container should be allowed unlink access on the settings.sol file by default. Then you should report this as a bug. You can generate a local policy module to allow this access. Do allow this access for now by executing: # grep plugin-containe /var/log/audit/audit.log | audit2allow -M mypol # semodule -i mypol.pp Additional Information: Source Context unconfined_u:unconfined_r:mozilla_plugin_t:s0-s0:c 0.c1023 Target Context unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_dir_t:s0 Target Objects settings.sol [ file ] Source plugin-containe Source Path /usr/lib64/xulrunner/plugin-container Port <Unknown> Host (removed) Source RPM Packages xulrunner-23.0-2.fc19.x86_64 Target RPM Packages Policy RPM selinux-policy-3.12.1-69.fc19.noarch Selinux Enabled True Policy Type targeted Enforcing Mode Permissive Host Name (removed) Platform Linux (removed) 3.10.7-200.fc19.x86_64 #1 SMP Thu Aug 15 23:19:45 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 Alert Count 1 First Seen 2013-08-18 22:49:26 EDT Last Seen 2013-08-18 22:49:26 EDT Local ID 81ae4e83-2c75-482c-9f02-ea3ced61368a Raw Audit Messages type=AVC msg=audit(1376880566.392:495): avc: denied { unlink } for pid=3090 comm="plugin-containe" name="settings.sol" dev="dm-2" ino=18350189 scontext=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:mozilla_plugin_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 tcontext=unconfined_u:object_r:user_home_dir_t:s0 tclass=file type=SYSCALL msg=audit(1376880566.392:495): arch=x86_64 syscall=unlink success=yes exit=0 a0=7f619225cd00 a1=7fff59e929d0 a2=0 a3=16e6f6973736572 items=0 ppid=3031 pid=3090 auid=1000 uid=1000 gid=1000 euid=1000 suid=1000 fsuid=1000 egid=1000 sgid=1000 fsgid=1000 ses=1 tty=(none) comm=plugin-containe exe=/usr/lib64/xulrunner/plugin-container subj=unconfined_u:unconfined_r:mozilla_plugin_t:s0-s0:c0.c1023 key=(null) Hash: plugin-containe,mozilla_plugin_t,user_home_dir_t,file,unlink Additional info: reporter: libreport-2.1.6 hashmarkername: setroubleshoot kernel: 3.10.7-200.fc19.x86_64 type: libreport
